Lets just say, three pregnancies and breast...

8 Jun 2012

Lets just say, three pregnancies and breast feeding takes a toll on your body. Remember that recovery can be brutal during the first week....but the end results will give you a self confidence that you never thought you could experience.

Basically, I felt super comfortable with Dr. Bandy and everyone I came into contact with at her office. I had gone to FIVE other consultations in Orange County and the LA area and everyone had something to different to say. I knew I wanted either lipo or a tummy tuck and a breast lift and MAYBE an augmentation. One thing every surgeon said, (besides Dr. Bandy) was that "Oh yeah lets do implants, how big do you want them?". WOW.....I wanted to hear options....I wanted to hear what I could expect and how implants would effect me and my breasts. It seemed liek every other Dr. just wanted to make my boobs as big as I wanted them. I was turned off and almost ready to give up. I actually tried to cancel my appointment at Dr. Bandy's office, and Melissa---one of the girls that works at Dr. Bandy's office---talked to me about the surgery that she had just gone through herself and how she can relate to wanting to give up and feeling hopeless like no one was listening to my wants and needs. She convinced me to come in, not in a sales pitchy way, but in a friendly "We are here for your best interest" sort of way.
When I went to Dr. Bandy's office for my initial consultation I immediately felt like I was at my final destination. The office isn't over powering with products, pictures of celebrities, etc. It was actually pretty pleasant. After meeting with Dr. Bandy I felt really relaxed and comfortable about everything that was discussed. She went into detail about everything that she recommended and why she did not agree with the approaches of the other surgeons. She let me have options, and I actually decided against having breast implants, because she felt that even though the amount of breast I had at that time was saggy, I still had fairly large breasts, so we agreed upon a lift. We also agreed to do the full mommy makeover and repair my abdominal muscles that had "seperated" through pregnancy.
Without making my review way too long for anyone to want to read...lets just say I'm 8 months out and have never felt better in my entire life. Sure, the tummy tuck scar hip to hip stinks to have...but it has healed great and is a light thin line...so its not awful. My husband absolutely LOVES my breasts..and I think I would have regreted having implants. My breasts are nice and perky without looking crazy and fake. I actually have a c cup still.....so they are beautiful. Combining my breasts, tummy tuck and a little bit of lipo on my stomach and waist areas was the best move I have ever made. I am so grateful for Dr. Bandy. She has changed my life and the way I feel about myself....and you cannot explain that to anyone. At the end of the day..after writing this whole review...and after you reading it...all I can say is if there is any doubt in your mind....and you want real honest answers with amazing results and a positive experience like non other.....go see Dr. Bandy. She won't let you down and you will not regret it. :)
